By Grace I'm Saved

Author: Christian L. Scheidt Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Covenant of Grace First Line: By grace I'm saved, grace free and boundless Lyrics: 1 By grace I'm saved, grace free and boundless; my soul, believe and doubt it not. Why stagger at this word of promise? Has Scripture ever falsehood taught? No; then this word must true remain: by grace you too shall heav'n obtain. 2 By grace! None dare lay claim to merit; our works and conduct have no worth. God in his love sent our Redeemer, Christ Jesus, to this sinful earth; his death did for our sins atone, and we are saved by grace alone. 3 By grace God's Son, our only Savior, came down to earth to bear our sin. Was it because of your own merit that Jesus died your soul to win? No, it was grace, and grace alone, that brought him from his heav'nly throne. 4 By grace! O mark this word of promise when you are by your sins oppressed, when Satan plagues your troubled conscience, and when your heart is seeking rest. What reason cannot comprehend God by his grace to you will send. 5 By grace to timid hearts that tremble, in tribulation's furnace tried, by grace, in spite of fear and trouble, the Father's heart is open wide. Where could I help and strength secure, if grace were not my anchor sure? 6 By grace! On this I'll rest when dying; in Jesus' promise I rejoice; for though I know my heart's condition, I also know my Savior's voice. My heart is glad, all grief has flown, since I am saved by grace alone. 7 By grace! This ground of faith is certain; so long as God is true, it stands. What saints have penned by inspiration, what in his Word our God commands, what our whole faith must rest upon, is grace alone, grace in his Son. Scripture: Ephesians 2:8-9 Used With Tune: MENTZER

How vast the benefits divine

Author: Augustus M. Toplady Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Covenant of Grace Lyrics: 1 How vast the benefits divine Which we in Christ possess! We are redeemed from guilt and shame And called to holiness. But not for works which we have done, Or shall hereafter do, Hath God decreed on sinful men Salvation to bestow. 2 The glory, Lord, from first to last, Is due to thee alone; Aught to ourselves we dare not take, Or rob thee of thy crown. Our glorious Surety undertook To satisfy for man, And grace was given us in him Before the world began. 3 This is thy will, that in thy love We ever should abide; That earth and hell should not prevail To turn thy Word aside. Not one of all the chosen race But shall to heav'n attain, Partake on earth the purposed grace And then with Jesus reign. Amen. Scripture: Ephesians 1:4 Used With Tune: ST. MATTHEW
